Good morning. At the casino mentioned above, I requested an immediate account closure due to gambling addiction via live chat. They told me that this could only be done via email. I was provided with an incorrect email address twice. Screenshots were taken. An email was sent to what I hope is the correct address. But there has been no response.

Hello Kora76,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Posido Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.
- Could you please advise which date is this chat from?
- Is there any chat which can prove that they have provided the wrong e-mail?
- When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?
Looking forward to your answer.
Regards,
Nick

Hello Nick. Yesterday I contacted you via live chat for the first time. I was informed that my account can only be closed via email. The email address was Unfortunately, I don't have a screenshot of this, i.e. from yesterday. I also sent 2 emails to this email address. As an automatic reply, I received an email saying that this email was wrong (see screenshots). , the email address that I found on the website, I sent another email tonight at 0.01 a.m. with the request to close my account immediately due to gambling addiction. Since I still haven't heard anything by midday today and have lost €1650 since last night, I tried again to close my account via live chat. Again I was told that this only works via email. This time I received the email address received. This time I took a screenshot. Again, send it to the correct email address on the Internet to close the account. My account is still open and support has not yet contacted me. I asked them to close my account immediately and refund the money I have lost since my first request to close the account. Unfortunately, still no response. I am happy to upload my emails/screenshots here and hope for your help.
The last contact again via live chat was just now, at 7:19 p.m. I was again informed that an account closure can only be done via email. And again I was given an incorrect email address. This time I took a screenshot....
Thank you!

26.01.2025, 1.25h: I have an email from received in English, as there was no German speaker available (there is never any in the live chat either, but luckily they use a translator there). Although I had told them countless times that I was addicted to gambling, they asked me seriously whether I really wanted to close my account. I was also told that my credit would then be gone..... Since I have no credit on my account or in my account, I confirmed at 7.24am that my account would be closed immediately, permanently and irrevocably. My request for the deposits since the application for account closure was made was not processed....

Hello Kora76,
Based on all the evidence you provided, the first correct e-mail you sent to the casino was on 28.1. - all the previous ones where non existing and honestly I have no idea where did you even get them as they are not stated on the website or anywhere else.
As a self-exclusion is not instant, due to that the casino has to process it, your account should be excluded today or in next day.
Unfortunately, there is no possible way to refund any deposits as you have forwarded your request to incorrect e-mail addresses.
Let us know if your account gets closed within the next 24 hours.
Regards,
Nick

Hello Nick. Please tell me which email address I need to use to send a self-exclusion? The email address I received in the live chat (see screenshots)? Or the one on the casino's website (see also screenshot)? Or the one that does not respond ? I wrote to ALL email addresses and asked them to close my account due to gambling addiction! And you tell me I used a wrong email address? I got it from the live chat!!!

Well, I have to admit that I am very disappointed with your answer..... I contacted live support for the first time on January 24th. I would expect that with good support, they would give me the correct email address to send my self-exclusion to? Right? This did not happen! There is an email address on the casino website that is apparently not correct either! Apparently I used the correct email address on January 28th... I don't know which of the many it is. Perhaps you could tell me. Today is January 31st, however, and my account is still open. I don't know what this has to do with player protection.
I thought you guys at Casino Guru were neutral? Unfortunately, I don't feel like I'm in good hands this time. Well... there's nothing you can do.

Let me summarize everything again because I have the feeling that I am not understood.
On January 24, 2025, I reported in the Posido Casino live chat that I was addicted to gambling and asked them to close my account immediately. I was told that an account closure could only be done by email to the email address " " would be possible. I contacted this email address on 24.01.25 at 23:57h, and again at 0.01h. On the casino website itself, the email address is " " to which you should send the self-exclusion request, which, as stated on this page, will be processed within 24 hours! I sent emails to this email address on January 25, 2025 at 0.02 a.m., 12.25 p.m. and 4.51 p.m., requesting that my account be closed due to gambling addiction! I contacted Live Support again, requesting that my account be closed, as they did not respond via email. On January 25, 2025, Live Support then gave me a different email address: . I contacted them at 7:03 p.m.! At 7:09 p.m. I received an automatic reply for the first time saying that my message had been received and that they were taking care of it. On January 26, 2025 at 1:25 a.m. I then received a message from Natasha (Posido)
"Dear.....Thank you for contacting our support team. We hope this email finds you well.We sincerely apologize, but at the moment, we do not have any native speakers available to respond to your message. In our effort to respond to you promptly, we will be addressing this reply in English. Thank you for your understanding.We would like to inform you that, in conformity with our Terms and Conditions, any balance in your game account will be voided during the process.Please, confirm your decision and acknowledgment by replying to this email.Our Casino is fully committed to supporting Responsible Gambling initiatives and encourages you to find information about Responsible Gambling at the websites of the organizations below.

Best Regards, Customer Service"
Just a few hours later, on January 26, 2025 at 7:24 a.m., I replied to this email with another request for immediate and permanent account closure! As of now, February 1, 2025, 9:01 p.m., my account is still not closed.
To date, I have sent countless emails to the email addresses given to me and those on the casino website, but no one has responded. I am again attaching screenshots that prove that I was given incorrect email addresses, as well as a screenshot of the posido casino website, which shows the email address for self-exclusion and that the transaction will be processed within 24 hours! What else should I do??? That's why I contacted Casino Guru. Firstly, for help closing the account, and secondly for support in getting the deposits back. It says quite clearly on the casino website that the transaction will be processed within 24 hours!! I've definitely lost more than €4000 by now! That has absolutely nothing to do with player protection!!!

Dear Michal. The casino made me an offer of 50% of my deposits. As a counter offer, I first made them €4530 with the consideration that my self-exclusion would be processed within 48 hours. Since I also wanted to accommodate the casino, my second offer was €4000. This means that the casino would have had a 3-day processing period. That would be more than fair! I am excited to see what the casino will decide.
Kind regards, Kora76

Dear Posido Casino,
Since it was established that the player sent an email to the correct email address on the 25th of January, I believe that the player should be refunded all of the deposits made on and from the 30th of January, if we take into account the timeframe needed for the casino to process the self-exclusion request (we are talking about working days of course). Can you refund this amount to the player so we can close the complaint as resolved?
